Although it’s been over a decade since The Wolf Among Us came out, there is one question that still plagues players- Was it Faith or Nerissa that spoke to Bigby in the climax? While some players have since moved on and made peace with the ending, some players and avid fans still debate this. There is enough evidence to support both claims, as well as evidence to support that they’re the same person.
During episode 1, after Bigby stops Woody from nearly murdering Faith, she says to Bigby that people only make him seem like a big, bad wolf. But in reality, Bigby isn’t all bad like everyone says he is. After giving Bigby a little peck, Faith walks away, leaving him to attend to Woody. Look at how similar Faith and Nerissa are. Both right-hand smokers, both carry purple handbags, and both wear a ribbon around their necks.

Telltale Games has been notorious for re-writes. While The Walking Dead Season 1 didn’t face scrutiny for its story, Seasons 2 and 3 fell short of players’ expectations, and rightfully so! The abysmal developmental hell Telltale was going through was very obvious in the poor writing. The Wolf Among Us, while widely appreciated, originally had a different story. Bigby was not going to be investigating the death of Faith, but rather one very famous ‘stepsister’.
The Wolf Among Us 1 isn’t without its plotholes or narrative gaps. For those that wondered “What happened to Detective Kelsey Brannigan?”, the answer is simple- Telltale’s rewrites. Between episodes 1 and 2, Telltale underwent a huge story revamp because Bill Willingham, the creator of Fables, despised the idea of Bigby being framed for murder and chased around by Mundie cops. And this was after the initial re-write surrounding ‘the death of a stepsister’.

In a move with potentially large implications, the creator of the groundbreaking DC Comics series “Fables” says he has released it into the public domain. The transition will take effect Friday.
“Fables,” which originally ran from 2002-2015 as part of DC’s Vertigo imprint, was created under a deal that gave Willingham sole ownership, the writer explained in a statement released Thursday. And the decision to give it away comes in response to what he described as years of bad faith dealings from DC Comics and its parent company (Warner Bros. Discovery).
Philosophically, Willingham said he opposes the current state of copyright law and doesn’t want to be a hypocrite. But he also described “a revolving door of strangers, of no measurable integrity, who now choose to interpret every facet of our contract in ways that only benefit DC Comics and its owner companies” that replaced the people he initially contracted with.

In a move that can only be described as incredibly badass, comic book writer and creator of "Fables," Bill Willingham, has made the series public domain. That means that anyone who wants to make commercial works based on "Fables" is not only allowed, but encouraged to do so by Willingham.
"Fables" was created by Willingham with the help of penciller Mark Buckingham, who drew the vast majority of the original series' 150 issues. The series follows the residents of Fabletown, a neighborhood in New York City that houses fairy tale and fantasy creatures who call themselves Fables, forced out of the Homelands by an evil force. The comic made compelling characters out of their flimsy fairy tale forebears, twisting tropes on their heads. For example, the series' greatest romance arc is between Snow White and Bigby Wolf, the Big Bad Wolf of legend! "Fables" ended in July of 2015 with issue 150, but...

This past week we lost one of the industry’s best. As Dan Green pulls his chair up to the great drawing board in the sky I look back on an amazing career. For me, Dan Green was probably the first inker I knew the name of. This comes from hunting down my back issues of Wolverine. Marc Silvestri and Adam Kubert were two of my favourites to track down issues of and Green was always the third name in the credits. Perhaps this is doing inkers a discredit. They are like drummers in rock bands in that regard. Essential to creativity but one step behind the limelight. If someone like Joe Sinnott was like the old-school drumming of Ringo Starr, then Green is more akin to the style of John Bonham. In my opinion, he was the first rock star inker.
The journey began for Dan Green in Detroit.

The search for legendary creatures may not be recognized as a legitimate science, but even the harshest critics of cryptozoology have to admit that it’s fun to imagine that there might still be a little bit of magic hidden in the modern world. From Sasquatch to the Loch Ness Monster, these mythical beasts have been inspiring stories for centuries, so it makes sense that they’d eventually show up in video games.
And with so many digital cryptids to choose from (you’d be surprised with how many games manage to sneak in a Mothman reference), we’ve decided to highlight six of the most memorable Cryptid appearances in gaming. After all, there’s nothing like a good monster hunt, and I think cryptozoology is criminally underutilized when it comes to genre storytelling – especially when it comes to videogames.

Fandoms can be intense, and there are perhaps no fandoms more intense than those revolving around video games. Gamers are passionate people and their favorite titles mean a lot to them, so they can be pretty protective over the characters within. It's no surprise then that Pedro Pascal was nervous about taking on the role of Joel in the HBO series "The Last of Us," based on the hit video game series.
During a recent actors roundtable with The Hollywood Reporter, "The Mandalorian" and "Game of Thrones" star shared his hesitation about taking on such a beloved character from such a major game franchise, revealing that he was truly terrified of disappointing fans. "I was scared. I was so scared," Pascal admitted. He had to try and reassure himself that in the grand scheme of things it didn't really matter, but knew that it was deeply important to fans and...

Natalie Portman is best known for her iconic movie roles - which include Padmé Amidala in the Star Wars franchise and Jane Foster in the Marvel Cinematic Universe - but at home, the "Thor: Love and Thunder" star is mom to two kids, Aleph Portman-Millepied and Amalia Millepied, both of whom she keeps out of the spotlight.
Portman shares her two children with husband Benjamin Millepied, a dancer, choreographer, and director. The pair married in an intimate outdoor celebration in Big Sur, CA, on Aug. 4, 2012. The couple first welcomed their son, Aleph, in June 2011 before the birth of their daughter, Amalia, in February 2017. That year, Portman actually missed the Academy Awards ceremony due to the arrival of her daughter; she was up for a best actress nomination for starring as former First Lady Jackie Kennedy in "Jackie."
Between her acting career and motherhood, Portman has had her hands full. Years after starting her family,...

Consisting of five stories and a wraparound segment, Fables for the Witching Hour is the latest anthology film to come my way. And after watching an adaptation of De Sade’s Justine a collection of short horror stories seemed like a perfect palette cleanser.
The wraparound, written and directed by Minh Collins, introduces us to Lab Tech Tina warning us not to watch these stories alone, not to turn off the lights, etc. She’s interrupted by her co-worker Layla (Lorren Cackowski; Clown Fear) telling her she’s leaving to get ready for a date. Tina then introduces the first segment.

Everyone has their favorite Disney movie, and for Wednesday actor Joy Sunday, it’s The Sword in the Stone. The 1963 animated classic tells the story of King Arthur as a boy and his beginnings as one of history’s greatest heroes. But in the Tim Burton–directed Netflix series Wednesday, Sunday’s Bianca Barclay has a heroic tale all her own.

Viewers first meet Sunday’s Bianca while Wednesday (Jenna Ortega) receives a tour of her new school, Nevermore Academy, from her perky roommate, Enid (played by Emma Myers). Bianca is the coolest girl in school and takes a strong disliking to Wednesday — a human game-over to all things popular and preppy.

James Gunn and Peter Safran have announced their initial plans for the new DC Universe, and one of the most exciting bits of news was that "Swamp Thing" is getting his own movie. While this is exciting on its own because Swamp Thing rules, it also means that some of the other characters from DC's Vertigo imprint might make their mark on the Dcu. Ole Swampy himself was originally a regular DC lineup character before being rebooted by Alan Moore with "Saga of the Swamp Thing" in 1982, helping to create the Vertigo lineup, which was seen as a darker, weirder alternative to standard DC Comics fare. Many characters have crossed from Vertigo to the main DC universe and back again, so it's entirely possible that Gunn and Safran could bring some other Vertigo characters to the big or small screen sometime soon. For fans of the imprint, which sadly shuttered...

The movie business teaches you to be wary of big spenders. Broad Green came and went in a blur of miscalculated flops. Annapurna downsized after several reckless buying sprees and finally stopped acquiring movies altogether. Now comes whispers that Canadian investment studio Bron — which helped finance films like “Joker” and “Licorice Pizza” — is going down a similar path.
Sources tell me that the studio launched by husband-and-wife team Aaron and Brenda Gilbert in 2010 laid off several senior roles and will merge its film and TV divisions into a single unit. Rather than produce the live-action features, I’m told that Bron is now working to secure new corporate partners as it restructures its business model around its Bron Digital division. That means a renewed focus on animation and games designed to create new franchises, not the usual blend of blockbusters and A-list auteurs that it has supported in the past.

Ahead of the release of Interpol’s new album The Other Side of Make-Believe, the indie rock trio have shared “Fables,” the latest single from the LP.
“It’s a summer jam and a piece of music we are particularly proud of,” frontman Paul Banks said of the track in a statement. “‘Fables’ features one of [guitarist Daniel Kessler]’s hottest licks,” comments Banks. “A breezy vocal with optimistic lyrics and a bouncy drum beat evocative of classic R&b with a nod to the golden age of hip-hop.”

Fables have an important place in every culture, using magic or unrealistic storytelling conventions to help teach audiences a real-world lesson. Each of the stories in the new Apple TV+ series "Roar" is a different fable about womanhood, and some are more effective than others. Telling a fable is a balancing act between entertainment value and teaching a lesson, and when "Roar" strikes that balance, it makes for excellent television. When it doesn't, it's well-made but ultimately frustrating, like after-school specials made by Women's Studies majors.
"Roar" is an anthology series with eight unique episodes, each chronicling the bizarre experiences of a different woman. The women...

Interpol have announced the release of their seventh LP, The Other Side of Make-Believe, which arrives July 15 via Matador. The band have also dropped the video for the album’s first single, “Toni,” the first installment of a two-part film.
In the Van Alpert-directed visual, frontman Paul Banks pulls up in a classic car to a sinister scene, siren wailing: A couple hides in an industrial area from a gang of dancers wielding chains, bats, and nunchucks. As the couple tries to flee, they’re spotted and the gang gives chase.
